[Solved] grouping field title

[Michael Tao]

Hi :
 

                    <telerik:GridGroupByExpression>
                        <SelectFields>
                            <telerik:GridGroupByField FieldAlias="StartDate" FieldName="Start" FormatString="{0:d}"></telerik:GridGroupByField>
                        </SelectFields>
                        <GroupByFields>
                            <telerik:GridGroupByField FieldName="Start" SortOrder="Ascending" FormatString="{0:d}"></telerik:GridGroupByField>
                        </GroupByFields>
                    </telerik:GridGroupByExpression>

In the source-code above, a field named Start is added into the GridField and the grouping field title will be something like
StartDate:2009-10-1. However, it is possible to remove the StartDate and just show 2009-10-1.
Does anyone have idea for it?

Hello Michael,

Try out the following code to customize the group header so as to display just the value:
c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemDataBound(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Item is GridGroupHeaderItem)
        {
            GridGroupHeaderItem item = (GridGroupHeaderItem)e.Item;
            string[] myArr = item.DataCell.Text.Split(':');
            item.DataCell.Text = myArr[1].Trim();
        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.
